Aloha -

I too just received my Raw SM11 54° F, with a Project X 6.5. I went with just one to see if I liked it before rounding out the compliment. I went with the F grind after some personal tests and knowing that I would use it mostly on full shots, the F grind is uber forgiving for those “fuller” swings and the goal is go get better dispersion in that 70-100 yard range. My current 54° is a M grind, which is fantastic around the greens but I struggled with a bit on longer shots.

Initial Thoughts: The fit and finish, and head shape is by far my favorite out of most of the past renditions. I am a huge fan of the SM6. Having a SM6 and SM9 in the bag I was due for an update. The 7 and 8 were demoed, as well as the 10, but several factors led to me waiting.

My bag fell over in some stout wind and the wedge has a nice beauty mark which is kind of irritating, but adds to the character.
